Or adapt the law that this farce isn't necessary in the first place. Because it is certainly broken.

This farce isn't necessary according to the law, fair use is a thing. The law doesn't need any adaptations - the YouTube policies do.

Fair point. Although companies tend to go out of their way to mitigage possible litigation.
